Patience is a Mystery
Unraveling Time's Riddle: Embracing Patience in Life's Journey
Lyrics
Where did all the time go in the day
Reflecting on the passage of time during the day.
Minutes turned to hours like a game
Feeling that minutes have transformed into hours like a challenging game.
Making me wonder if I will sink or swim
Contemplating the uncertain outcome, whether to succeed or fail.
No one prepared me how I am supposed to win
Expressing a lack of preparation for the challenges and how to overcome them.
Thinking all the ways I'll make the year
Considering ways to make the upcoming year different from the last one.
Different then the last one for I fear
Fearful of being trapped in a repetitive pattern without escape.
I'm stuck in a pattern and never getting out
Feeling stuck in a circle, a metaphor for a repetitive and predictable situation.
Trapped in a circle a ticking roundabout
Sensing a relentless cycle, like a ticking roundabout, indicating the passage of time.
I'm chasing the clock and praying for rest
Actively pursuing time while yearning for rest.
Trying as I might to pass the test
Struggling to pass a test, possibly symbolizing life's challenges.
Patience is a mystery a tough one to crack
Describing patience as a mysterious and challenging concept.
When I finally break it I'm not turning back
Determined to break through the challenge of patience and not look back.
Slowly but surely I never have tried
Emphasizing a slow but steady approach, never having attempted impatience.
Maybe I will get there before the end of time
Hoping to achieve a goal before the end of time.
Someone came along who could it be
Introducing the arrival of someone, potentially influential.
Father Time old friend and enemy
Identifying this person as Father Time, both a friend and an enemy.
Making me anxious the work that's left undone
Feeling anxious about unfinished work and tasks left undone.
When will I finish and finally have some fun
Questioning when the work will be finished, seeking a moment for enjoyment.
I'm chasing the clock and praying for rest
Continuing the pursuit of time and the desire for rest.
Trying as I might to pass the test
Persisting in efforts to overcome challenges and pass the test.
Patience is a mystery a tough one to crack
Reiterating the mysterious nature of patience as a tough challenge.
When I finally break it I'm not turning back
Committing to not turning back once patience is overcome.
Slowly but surely I never have tried
Emphasizing the slow and steady approach, lacking previous attempts at impatience.
Maybe I will get there before the end of time
Expressing the possibility of reaching a goal before time concludes.
Puzzle pieces adding up the picture's of a flame
Referring to puzzle pieces as metaphors for life experiences building up.
Burning down a candle and whispering my name
Describing the consumption of time like a burning candle, with personal significance.
Telling me to wait a while and take it day by day
Advising to wait patiently and take life day by day.
Making sure I see it the worry in my way
Acknowledging the presence of worry in the journey.
I'm chasing the clock and praying for rest
Continuing the pursuit of time while praying for rest.
Trying as I might to pass the test
Persisting in efforts to overcome challenges and pass the test.
Patience is a mystery a tough one to crack
Reiterating the mysterious nature of patience as a tough challenge.
When I finally break it I'm not turning back
Committing to not turning back once patience is overcome.
Slowly but surely I never have tried
Emphasizing the slow and steady approach, lacking previous attempts at impatience.
Maybe I will get there before the end of time
Expressing the possibility of reaching a goal before time concludes.
